Reporting features have supported regular user management while some automation capabilities remain unused
While the features in ManageEngine ADManager Plus are very good, not all features are necessary for every organization. Automation is a strong feature within the product but is not currently required due to the organization's environment and needs. There are always possibilities for improvements in the initial setup of ManageEngine ADManager Plus.

I'm currently working with On Demand Migration solution from Quest. I am providing feedback regarding my experience with On Demand Migration. I have used automated scheduling in On Demand Migration. I can run immediate migration or schedule it as per my convenience, but I have used the run immediately option because I needed it on an urgent basis. The effectiveness of On Demand Migration detailed reporting in managing migration progress is quite good, as there is a report option where I can see what migration got successfully completed, which failed, and even the problem ID and event ID, allowing me to troubleshoot easily on the demand portal. I have not explored the data filtering options. I have not explored data filtering for filtering the data. In terms of data security, we are using independent DLP for data protection in our organization. I have not explored features such as AI functionality or additional security aspects, as I have explored only On Demand Migration for mailbox, Teams chat, Teams channel, and OneDrive. For O365 to O365, it's a very good and easy tool, so I can recommend anyone using O365 to O365 tenant migration to go with On Demand Migration. My overall rating for this product is 9 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"My company chose ADManager Plus because it is cost effective and is a versatile solution."
"The most valuable feature was conducting the automation of our cloud and all services of the Active Directory."
"The scalability is also good. ADManager Plus is being used by seven to eight system administrators right now, and it has been working fine."
"The solution is perfect for moving myself from first to second-level support and empowering technicians to handle certain tasks such as resetting passwords, reporting expiring passwords, etc."
"Simple with good automation."
"The solution offers very good reports for management purposes."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard. They allow me to see everything in real-time and drill down and pick and choose versus running scripts."
"The product helps to validate every activity."
"The bottom line is that using On Demand Migration results in less effort for my customers to bring data over or to work with the data at a new location."
"It's a one-stop shop for tenant-to-tenant migration, negating the requirement for various tooling and additional license costs."
"We can easily and simply work out the cost for any migration work that is required with the licensing model."
"We can see the issues that may come up during migration. We can handle multiple workloads using this since it connects with Microsoft 365."
"You can batch up large groups. You can tell it to move everything for 200 people, and then it just goes. Once you get things set and configured, it is pretty easy. I can hand it off to people more junior to me who are less trained on the product, and they can be successful."
"It's very easy to use. What I like is that if there is an error, for each task, I can find out what actually went wrong."
"Quest allows you to customize your migration. For example, you can opt only to migrate Microsoft Teams and the related data or you can migrate all of Office 365. You can also choose to migrate accounts and mailboxes. Sometimes, we don't want to migrate SharePoint data, or we only want to migrate specific users."
"The greatest asset is its nature as a SaaS product, offering exceptional scalability and flexibility, which are invaluable to us."
 

Cons

"Other products have more flexibility and integration in managing identities."
"Lacks sufficient integration with management tools."
"The solution should be made tablet friendly because it works well on iPhones and Android phones, but does not work on tablets."
"API integrations are not supported for all HR tools. For example, Workday is supported but SAP HCM is not."
"This solution is not stable, it wasted my time."
"I think the cost of this product is a little higher than I would expect."
"The number of main controllers affects the database for creating the hardware specs."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements can be introduced by making it available at a cheaper rate."
"We had some issues with migrating Teams."
"One significant issue that often elicited complaints during domain migration was the need to set the primary UPN for objects once they were migrated to the target."
"They need to make the dashboard editable in the browser instead of only through CSV/scanning tenants."
"In terms of Microsoft Teams, the only disappointment for us has been how the chats are migrated. They just don't look exactly the same as they would if you were logging on as normal. Obviously, when it comes to the user experience, you want the look and feel of everything to be replicated identically, and chats is the only part of it that doesn't look identical. However, it's not a 'car crash.' It's a slight deviation from what people would expect."
"In terms of Microsoft Teams, the only disappointment for us has been how the chats are migrated."
"Quest On Demand Migration needs to simplify its migration with Microsoft."
"One of the things that can be included is automation. For the matching and the migration process, they could put in some automation. I'm only allowed about 25 users at a time. If it's a large tenant, it takes quite a while to put them in the batches. If there is enough automation into that, that'd be perfect."
"They should introduce a module for migrating power automation for users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I need to pay for the license, and I believe that it could be made cheaper."
"The pricing depends on scope and makes sense for use cases with multiple domains."
"It is not expensive."
"I am satisfied with the solution’s pricing."
"I downloaded the trial version, only."
"The tool's pricing is good."
"The cost of this product is a little higher than I would expect for a tool like this."
"I thought On Demand Migration would be more expensive. I'm pleased with the cost that was quoted."
"The product had reasonable pricing until the beginning of this year. Now, the price is increased by 20%."
"We are fine with the tool's pricing."
"It is more than fair for what you get."
"It is quite cheap. Previously, I used to work for a big company, and they get quite a good deal, and now, I'm working for a small company, and even they get quite a good deal. So, its pricing is quite fair."
"The pricing is in line with other products."
"I find the pricing to be cost-efficient for what you receive with the Quest product."
"The solution is on the more expensive side, when you compare it not only to BitTitan but to other tools in the cloud market. Of course, you receive things like Quest's support organization."
